The UU Justice Ministry of NC’s “Becoming a Justice-Making Congregation” workshop will be held at the Eno River UU Fellowship of Durham from 9:30 am to 3:30 pm on Saturday, March 23, 2019.
This workshop is designed to give UU social justice leaders and activists the frameworks, tools, and skills they need to help their congregations assess their current work for justice, engage in meaningful, relational, and transformative justice work, ground their social justice work in our shared faith and values, and increase the visibility, effectiveness, and impact of their justice work.
